Martin Barr is a new dad – welcomes twins to the family

Motocross Martin Barr

Martin Barr is a new dad, a new dad! No that's not a typo Martin's partner Rachael has given birth to a set of twins. A girl and a boy no less!

Running his own team this year, Martin finished second in the MX1 class of the MX Nationals and has now topped that by becoming a father.

The pair came into the world on October 26 and no doubt Martin (senior now!) has some career numbers already planned for the two young 'uns.

It would be easier to repeatedly take on LaRoccos Leap or Matterley Basin's quad than raise twins, but for Barr, he couldn't be more delighted.

"Monday 26th October these two beautys arrived, @mrsbarr50 done an awesome job from start to finish and we couldnt be anymore happier Martin Junior & Lydia Barr," Barr wrote on his Instagram account.

In a difficult year, it's great news and we wish Martin and Rachael all the best with their new squad.

Well Martin! Now that's sorted, any news on a deal for 2021?
